Piper leads us through the frightening landscape where thirst is
political, drought is a business opportunity, and multinational
corporations control our most necessary natural resource. Visiting
the hot spots of water scarcity and the hotshots in water finance,
Piper shows what happens when global businesses buy up the water
supply and turn off the taps of people who cannot pay."A
wonderful book—full of commitment, deeply moving, with stories of real
people affected by corporate water grabs. I highly recommend The Price of Thirst. "
